Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, add potato, then boil until the potato is cooked through, but still crisp.
- Drain potato and rinse it with cold water, to remove the starch and maintain a firm texture. Drain and transfer potato to a large bowl.
- Add garlic to potato, sprinkle salt on top, and set aside.
- Heat oil over medium heat in a small skillet (or a wok). When the oil is warm, add peppercorn and cook them until fragrant, about 1 minute. Turn off heat.

- Carefully pour the hot oil over the potato, and use two pairs of chopsticks to mix everything together immediately to coat potato evenly with oil and salt.
- Serve at room temperature as a side dish or as a salad.

HOT POTATO AND BROCCOLI SALAD
This is a recipe that I adopted in the Recipezaar restaurant give-away of Feb 2005. UPDATE: Having now made the recipe, I've pretty much left it intact. I myself used fresh basil and increased it to about 1 Tbs. I also left the potatoes unpeeled. I personally leave the salt out, but that's because of doctor's orders and most people probably will like it better as is. The original recipe said 1 bunch broccoli, broken into florets, but the updated Zaar computer program won't accept bunch as a measure, so I've changed how that's shown. I don't believe those changes are likely to affect the flavor much, though, so essentially it's the same recipe I started with. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russet, when cooked in a salad.
- Boil the potatoes until tender-crisp: You want the potatoes to be cooked through but still have a little bite to them.
- Shock the potatoes in cold water: This will stop the cooking process and help the potatoes keep their shape.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what really brings the salad together, so make sure it's flavorful and well-balanced.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, meats, or cheeses.
Conclusion:
Chinese broccoli and potato salad is a delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or side dish. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a new salad to try, give this one a go!
